Two girls,met on InternationalElbrus Race 2010 last Fall, decided to realise the high-altitude project. Masha (Elbrus Race Winner in 2009): Moreover, first (before the real meeting) I have a couple of weeks scare stories about Ola. For example, in the morning she wakes up, runs to Elbrus eastern top, then descends, has breakfast, runs to Elbrus West top, and can coplete this all all before dinner . The worst thing that I believe that... Every evening I got sms from my friends with stories about her previous high-altitude feats.
We were going to run the same distance at the VI international ELBRUS RACE and I just, frankly, surprised by the fact one more crazy girl appeared, who wasn't lazy to run from Azau...And I was even more impressed by her high-altitude experience and sport achievements, as well as the fact that she came to the race right after the attempt to climb Nanga Parbat, and then followed the ascent to Pobeda peak. But this does not compare to the impression left by her after a personal meeting!
When I stood in the rain on the Azau in the start morning, and just liked that the competition would been moved to the next day and I would be able to sleep a lot under a warm blanket, Ola's eyes shined with the desire to run and she actually "hoof beat ;)
This "terrible woman";), was very positive and pleasant girl to talkl! In general, at home already, in the correspondence with her, I received a letter inviting them to travel to Pakistan for 8000, and I immediately responded positively :)
Now we're going to Gasherbrum II (8035m) and Hidden Peak (8068m), and we are now Ternua Female Team!
Each of us has some acclimatization true, unfortunately we couldn't do this together, for several reasons ... Olga climbed Mont Blanc, I was on Elbrus from the north.
